The substantial technical effect and implementation process of the technical solution here, that is, the basic function, are as follows: This utility model patent is divided into two parts. One is to use a high-precision weighing sensor to weigh regularly to record increments, and solve the measurement of solid and liquid precipitation by conversion; the other is to use three ultrasonic sensors to simultaneously measure the depth of snowfall in a certain place, solve the drawback of large error in measuring snow depth with a single probe, and then upload the measurement data through the 4G wireless network, so as to achieve the purpose of detection with relatively simple technology and low cost. According to the measurement error requirements of the meteorological department, under the water receiving port with a diameter of 20 cm, the weight of 0.1mm precipitation is 3.14 grams, which does not exceed 0.4mm under light rain intensity (precipitation intensity: 4mm / minute), and the maximum allowable error is 4% under heavy rain intensity (10mm / minute). The 10KG weighing sensor with 0.2% accuracy can meet general requirements. The snow depth sensor uses ultrasonic waves, and the three probes are distributed outward at 120 degrees. The snow depth is measured at the same time, which can eliminate the error caused by the uneven snow surface caused by blowing and other factors. Data collection can be achieved by connecting to the acquisition host through RS485. Compared with existing technologies, it has simple principles, convenient maintenance, low cost, and is easy to use and promote.
